2019 festival has closed

We would like to thank all the audiences who came to the festival, all the artists from Japan and abroad who presented fantastic performances, all the technical crews who created beautiful theatre spaces in a town without a theatre, and all the volunteers and interns who brought liveliness in each venue with big smiles in spite of the heat.
We hope ricca ricca*festa delivered you ‘nuchigusui’ (energy for your mind).

Next year, ricca ricca*festa will be organised in conjunction with the 20th ASSITEJ World Congress / MIRAI Festival, which will take place in Tokyo on 14-24 May 2020.
The festival period will be changed from our usual timeline.
We will announce about this in due course.

*INFORMATION FOR ARTISTS:
ricca ricca*festa 2020 programme will be selected from the Congress programme, so there will not be our own programming next year.
Any applications which are submitted to the festival will be considered for 2021 and later.
We appreciate your understanding.

Thank you very much again to everyone who took part in ricca ricca*festa 2019!!
